## Hebrews 10:31 in Context (Verses 28–34 KJV)
 
 [28 ](/kjv/hebrews/10/28) He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
 
 [29 ](/kjv/hebrews/10/29) Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
 
 [30 ](/kjv/hebrews/10/30) For we know him that hath said, Vengeance *belongeth* unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
 
 [31 ](/kjv/hebrews/10/31) *It is* a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
 
 [32 ](/kjv/hebrews/10/32) But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions;
 
 [33 ](/kjv/hebrews/10/33) Partly, whilst ye were made a gazingstock both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, whilst ye became companions of them that were so used.
 
 [34 ](/kjv/hebrews/10/34) For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.
 
[Hebrews 9](/kjv/hebrews/9) [Hebrews 11](/kjv/hebrews/11)
